The Old School Self Catering, Praslin Island

Exceptional10.0

AMAZING service, quality and value!

This was an absolute gem of a place. If you are traveling with kids, I truly recommend this self catering option! The apartment was clean, well furnished, and was decorated with fresh hibiscus flowers and even figures made from the towels like you get on cruise ships! Moreover, the customer service was outstanding. On our arrival we smelled the fresh bread baking at the bakery downstairs and we asked Nathalie if they also made cakes there since it was our daughter's birthday the following day. She made our 7 year old extremely happy when we arrived home from the beach to an incredible chocolate cake, balloons, and a personalized card from the Old School staff! They truly went above and beyond! Location is about 1-2 minute drive from the ferry and is well placed to explore both sides of the island equally well.

Great stay at Old School

Kitchen is well equipped, there is a washing machine in the apartment, the showers are great! Under the hotel there is a bar with amazing owners that were very helpful. Btw, baware of non-official taxi drivers who will charge you too much (nothing to do with the property). However, the manager will book you a cheap tax and/or rented car for 50 euros or less per day. Book transportation from the port to the hotel in advance via a manager as else you will overpay

Great place to stay

Ideal for a self-catering holiday in a residential area. Short drive to the popular tourist areas. Very clean and new. Great bakery down stairs. Helpful staff, even before we arrived!
